Jen's April Roundup

It’s the end of April, and you know what that means! Time for another monthly roundup. In these roundups, I recap life highlights and all the things I’ve been loving over the past month. April brought so much goodness! So many amazing organizing projects, new organizing products, company & life updates, and more. My intention with this month’s roundup is to inspire, empower, and share positivity with you all! Enjoy xx

April’s Jeneral Highlights

• I got ENGAGED! My fiancé surprised me in the most special way, and I’m still pinching myself! Thank you all for the love 💕

• I hosted another webinar with our amazing LIJ partners! What started as a referral program has quickly turned into an amazing support system for organizers across the globe. See if we have partners that organize in your area here!

• We celebrated Earth Day by sharing the idea of thoughtfully purging. Thoughtful purging means making it a part of your monthly routine so that you can manage the amount of things you own and properly donate, recycle, and discard them! Some of our partners shared their top purging tips—read them here.

• Life in Jeneral/Closets in Jeneral’s showroom is officially underway! We rented the space out when COVID hit, but the renovation is back on track. What we have planned for this space is going to showcase everything you could possibly do to maximize your at-home living. It’s going to be a place where anyone in the area is welcome to come and experience the Life in Jeneral way. We cannot wait to have people here!

• Hello Magazine featured this insane pasta hack we shared on the ‘gram!

• Semi Handmade shared our foolproof 3 steps to organizing under your bathroom sink!
